Jess is from Southwest Virginia. Her first job out of college was in ABA and she absolutely fell in love. She has been in the field now for almost 4 years and is currently finishing a graduate degree in Applied Behavior Analysis at Purdue University. She has worked in many settings and environments, such as clinic based, in-home, community, and school-based. She believes in compassionate ABA, through natural environment teaching, mutual respect, and a trusting relationship. Outside of work you can find Jess watching true crime with her fur babies (Jojo & Jemma) or playing card/board games with friends.
